REACTION OF TH F PRESS TO
THE ANTI-LYNCIIING BILL
America is a big country; in
habiUtTEjF'many people of man\
mind?, of different feelings, ol
various educational levels, culture
and refinement. Some are definitely
followers of Christ and oth
ers of the devil; many are hypo
critical and many sincere; some
are full of the milk of human kindness,
while there are others devoid
of every sense of humanity.
Many stand for law and order,
while there are others who prefei
th? law o*f the jungle It is not
surprising therefore that thte. reaction
to the recent passage of the
Gavagan anti-lynching law ?bv the
lower house of Congress is anything*
but uniform. The northern
?- : press is all but unanimous in it.praise
and commendation of th<.
passage of the bill, the hope being
expressed that the Senate will also
pass" the measure. The southern
press condemns and encourages th>
southern senators to fight its passage
to the bitter end. It must
not be understood however that
the whole southern press take= J
such a stand for there are notable
exceptions, particularly, the largei
and more influential papers. Many
of the smaller and rural ones seem
? ?yet rot to be tired of smelling Uv
hearing flesh of burning human beings.
Some even go so far as to
express the fear that if such a
law is passed1, in"- revenge, there
will I e more lynchings They know
bette *, for lynchers are cowards

in putting the fear?if not of Go.ii
?then of Uncle Sam in their sadistic
hearts. And then too if
that is the real sentiments of
such rats, the sooner an anti-lynch
ing hill is passed, the better it will
be. South Carolina's record for
lynching is pet as bad as some of
tho real lynching states, though it
is black enough, and it. is to be
regn-MeH?that one of?its?new-1
papers suggests the possibility of
revenga'lyridhings, and that too
from a coupty that boasts of never
having had av lynching?Chester
county. The following is what it?
The Chester Reporter?says:
Would Re Resented
Instead of decreasing lynching
there are many who believe that-a
federal statue will increase it, and
thoy may t>e corrrct. There v/TTT
naturally be a wave of resentment
throughout the Southern states, at
which the new law is directed, and
it's not unlikely when, the law is
fully understood and. the animus
behind it that a wave of lynching-:
- will sweep over this section. As
has also been pointed out local officers,
who will be made the objects
of relentless prosecution by
the federal rnvornmprf. mnv ni.S
try to arrest criminals likely to he
lynched, if h lynching- means that
they (the officers) are to be hailed
into court by the Washington
authorities. No other measure
pushed through congress in years
has probabl" led to half the troublethat
this one may bi ing in its
wake.
THINK ON THESE THINGS
Within a short time now thcusands
of dollars will be paid out
by graduates of Negro schools and
colleges for class rings, pins, etc.
It would be interesting to know
just how much of that money passes
through the hands of colored
men and women as agents of the
Urge jewelry manufacturing ho usL
eg furnishi.tg such. We venture
the suggestion howevef that the
amount would be painfully small.
And yet this business ?? large enough
to give sfeVeral such agents
lucrative employment' Perhaps,
the pupils themselves have ..never
thought of this side of a matter
which, alter all, is woithy of serious
utten'.ion, Many' of thesP
same pupils are going forth, from
schools with nothing ih particular
in prospect for them ih the shape
of * employment. Perhaps even the
principals and presidents of these
schools and colleges have nevei
given a thought to the fact tliat
the supplying of such 'jewelry constitute
a business of aome magnitude,
and would thu3 Kive some
of these same boys aiid girls t
ousiness opening. We are quite
certain of. that, otherwise we
would see this business in the
hands of colored agcn.tf>? Negroes
complain so much about there art
no chances in the busi/mss worie
ior them when they are walking
all over such opportunities, The
trouble '' is, there Is too little
thought being exercised' We thin!
coo much in terms of What is, toe
nttle in the possibility in what car
and might be done. \* e l?ok to<
..iiw.li fn.*. o h'om those
- ?vhc/ by foresight, push nnd hus.tli
aave themselves established something.
The. Negro is not "s weal
and helpless as hQ all too oi'tei:
.hinks he is; he is just lacking u
sound thinking, in conjnion. sensi
and confidence in hiinstlli* As ii
tile jewelry business i?i>' it might
oe said in i.he matter of graduation
.nvitaiions and all othe1' kinds 01
mi' tts that is concerned. Negrc
concerns could take cat'? pf all
ousirress o'f that kind a/-d did colored'
people think alon^ that line
.nany a young man ai>d woman
vould be employed who how have
/othing to1 do. From the stand
yti'dkl of business entei'jH'ises,
iong as the colored lhaii takes no
thought of tomorrow afld. is only
concerned with today so long vein
tilings b0 dark and dreary tor the
-ay. It there is anybocly in the
world who' needs a New lical, it's
the Negro; not a New p?al given
to him by some one else, however,
o much as a New Deal himseli,
